The Prescott Journal Miner hits the nail on the head when it says; Miners who go out and paste location notice on tree or bury 1t in pile of rocks, and til en dig a ten-foot hole on the ledge located by it, and call it a mine, will find out in time that the world is misnomer. There are several thousand location no- tices recorded in this county, but there are very few mines developed, 50 far. There are prospects innumerable, and very many of them very rich, some of them remarkably so, as far as developed What Is needed is for owners of these claims to sink, develop and work their properties. If they have not the means to do so and allow the ore to lie on the dump, take it to the sampling works and sell it for cash, and with the cash buy more grub and powder and go back to their claims and do more work. This Is slow process but it is the only one which will win. Men who have money are not looking for prospect holes. Il there is anything in your claim every dollars worth of work done on it will in nance the value of it three or four times If there is nothing in it, the sooner yol find it out the better for you and tn country.

The last number of the Manufacturers Record, of Baltimore, contains the fol- lowing pertinent points:
 Some weeks ago the Manufacturers Record presented some interesting facts as to the methods adopted by the grow ing towns of the west to attract public attention. We gave some illustrations of the many ways used of widely adver Using their advantages, and commended their example to the south. The south, With all its rapid growth, has not yet seen the importance of constantly mak- ing known It's advantages and attractions. Many leading business men think when they have spent S25 towards advertising their town, that they have reached their full limit-in fact, they almost regard this as extravagance.
 The freedom with which money is spent to advertise the west and California IS astonishing, but it pays. Every dol lar is returned many fold. The man who contributes S2o towards advertising his town, whether it be to aid in publishing and distributing well prepared and we'll printed pamphlet or to aid the local paper in getting up line special issue to send out to enauirers may not, possibly, re- ceive $50 in return the next day or the next week, but in due time it will come. Advertising must be done judiciously and consistently, if profitable results are to be secured, and if it is desired to attract attention to the climatic, manufacturing or mercantile advantages of town, money must be freely spent.
 A few years ago Florida was enjoying a tremendous boom real estate was ir great demand, thousands and tens of thousands of settlers and visitors were pouring into the state and everybody was prosperous.
 What caused all this1 Advertising.
 The railroads, the land companies ant business men generally spent money witt great freedom in advertising. The coun try was fairly deluged with Florid; literature phlets, circulars anC special issues of newspapers were scat tered through the north and vest, anC also through Europe with a lavish hand Every body had the Florida fever. It i not so now.
 What caused the change2 Failure t. advertise.
 About the time that the wave of pros perlty reached its highest point, the lead CTS in Florida's development conclude that the state had received such a mo ] mentum that it would continue to attraC
 ever increasing crowds.
 e And so the railroads made fewer COT | sessions for excursion rates; they issue ' fewer pamphlets, and the land companit !. and towns advertised less and then ever, j. thing went the wrong way. Fewer pe' b pie came to the state either as visitors | settlers, and real estate became dull al O depressed in value.
 r While everybody in Florida was tr ? ing to learn what was the matter, the
 discovered that the railroads and lar
 owners of California had taken advantas
 of the decrease in advertising in Florid
 and the whole country was student
 flooded with the most entrancing pictur
 of the glories of California climate, oftl
 fertility of it's soil, and the rapidly a
 cumulating wealth of its people. The r

From, private soLarees NY e hAvo- -1earEed the following particulars with regard to the Blevins family. It appears they commenced their career in lawlessness before they moved to Arizona, and have been carrying it on without interrup tion, and with extraordinary immunity from the lawseyer since their debut into this Terrtory.i But they, like all others who break and trample under foot the laws of God and man, have paid the penalty of their misdeeds. John Blev- iens, we believe, is the only one of six that is now alive, and he is at present confined in our county jail on a charge that will undoubtedly send him to the Territorial prison for quite number of years. A few short weeks since these men were riding through the country i'll all the strength and vigor of good health and robust constitutions, openly defying the law, intimidating peaceful citizens, and declaring they would not submit to arrest from any officer. Now four of them fill untimely graves, without cof- fins, and the fathers bones are, perhaps, bleaching in some wild and unfrequent- ed spot, the flesh having been torn from them by wild animals, as his body has never been found. Verify, the way o
 the transgressor IS hard.
